On long-term talent our Rating reads 50, top 11% of the 73 attacking midfielders in the League One. At 18 Richards is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 23.1 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Richards is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
5 goals in 27 appearances (0.19 per game) for an upper-table side. Add 2 assists for 7 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 49.6, Richards carries the 8th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the League One (top 11%). In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.48 goal contributions per 90). At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 18, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~31), then tapers with age. At 18, Richards sits on 23.1, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Richards's projected Rating — 49.6 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
